R&D tax incentive (superdeduction of qualifying expenses with respect to their recognition for tax purposes)

Companies that invest in the creation of brand new or improved products, services, technologies and management processes can claim a 150% deduction of expenses incurred during R&D activities, reducing the profits tax base. Only a handful of companies in Russia are currently taking advantage of this benefit. This webcast will be focused on the practical aspects of applying the R&D superdeduction. We hope this conference will be of interest to companies conducting eligible R&D activities across a range of industries.
